Remington 22 lr Golden Bullets

[fpgt72]

Shooting indoors, with other people banging away, easy to miss a squib if one isn't watching for it.
Proly thought he just had a gun issue, not ammo issue.
Autos............people should be on the watch, suspect squib at any cycle failure or odd sound.
Revolver guys doing speed drills, usually shove em out with the next one (and ring the bbl) LOL

Worked a shop w indoor range.
Brass rod got a workout.

Some folks had rather catastrophic failures.
No RO on range, so couldn't babysit.

For the sake of argument....you all know I love to argue.....how would a squib be a gun issue? Another bullet stuck in the bore

To me if it goes bang, and the tube thingy is not plugged up with stuffs then the boolet should come out....

All kidding aside, I think with a lot of this bulk stuff what happened between the factory and our grubby little paws has a great deal to do with it.

Shooters on indoor ranges sometimes fail to notice their gun's change in report (due to other shooters).
If they've had cycling issues before they proly assume it's just another.

Lots of times on a revolver the bullet doesn't even get all the way into the forcing cone, so the gun locks up on the squib and stops a kaboom.
Sometimes it gets stuck in the bbl and the next pushes it out. Might ring/bulge the bbl. Might not.
Speed shooters seem the most prone to that.

Wonder how many ol Miculek has pushed out w a followup LOL

I have shot those in semis and revolvers, lever rifles, bolts and semis - maybe 1 or 2 that went click the first time and bang the second go-round.

FWIW some longer than average .22 rifle barrels warn of sticking low V stuff in them.

Guess I am lucky then.....never has happened to me.
